The Tent City Experience

It was Tent City week at Champlain College to help raise awareness of the plight of homeless people in Burlington. A series of workshops supplemented the camping out on Aiken Green. A soup kitchen meal was provided and on Thursday, the Reality Bite Hunger Banquet was held. Depending on the admission ticket participants picked, they had a full turkey dinner, a dinner of simple rice and beans or  just rice and "dirty" water.
